I just watched the wmv file, and several others from that site, -they were interesting, they only confirmed for me, what I already thought. -That Jews should not abandon their settlements.

I have hoped that allowing Palestinian 'Statehood' may provide the ability to hold them a bit more accountable for what they do. -But deep down I realize it will not make them accountable.

I have tried my best to see the benefits of pulling out of some settlements. But I don't get it. I don't want the Jews to give up as much as a single square inch.

I'm not Jewish, but I enjoy studying the History of the Middle East and collecting Holy Land numismatics and interesting artifacts.

I have 2,000 year old coins that proclaim the "redemption of Israel" from Rome.

I have articles from the 1929' massacres.

I have dozens of PLO calendars with "blood-thirsty" battle-cries logos and mottos that would appall most Westerners.

I believe the Palestinians -could- prosper and live in peace within their own State. But they will never be content to coexist. They openly state so.

The Jews will allow Palestinian Statehood, but the Palestinians will -never- tolerate the Jewish Homeland.

The motto: "To the Sea" best describes the tone of
Palestinian resolve, (They will not rest until every last Jew has been driven "from the river, to the sea")

-After watching the clips that ElisabethinCincy linked to, I'm a little more sympathetic to the settlers, and I only pray that Israeli leadership knows what they are doing and that they get this right, because the Palestinians will -NOT- perform in accordance to any agreements, they will simply maneuver, cut & slash in typical fashion, cyclically and without end.
